Now that a lot of the commotion has subsided I'm just curious to know how y'all are finding the Lemmy experience in general and whether you use it regularly like you did reddit?

A bit annoyed about defederations and community blocks. If an instance wants to be an island by itself, fine, but you shouldn't have to stay up to date with random announcements from each instance to figure out all the places you need to have an account to access all the content you want to.

I feel that in the end there will be 3 main clusters

  • vanilla, family-friendly content
  • piracy
  • porn

People who would want to have the whole experience would need 3 accounts, but that should be it

my predictions are:

  • explicit freeze-peach a la exploding heads (the so-called "alt fedi" over on mastodon)
  • reddit-style free-for-all with just enough moderation to not be voat 2 (the current default of the threadiverse)
  • strictly moderated "traditional fediverse with proper groups"
  • porn

of course there will be parts that overlap, but i absolutely expect a split to occur between the "reddit migratees" and "people who want a mastodon with threading" groups, if the second half hasn't given up on the threadiverse and returned to mastodon already
